Question

What is the main limitation in harnessing Geo thermal energy?

Answer 1

Location Specific – Good geothermal reservoirs are hard to come by. Iceland and Philippines meet nearly one-third of their electricity demand with geothermal energy. Prime sites are often far from population centers. Distribution costs – If geothermal energy is transported long distances, cost can become prohibitive.

thank you!

Answer 2

Answer:

Some limitations of geothermal energy:

1. The biggest limitation of using geothermal to generate electricity is that there are very few places on earth that have magma close enough to the earth’s crust to create the conditions necessary for generating electricity in an economical way.

2. The initial cost required for geothermal exploration is another limitation. The costs of drilling the wells and building the plants can be very expensive
